The Khoi-san people were the original inhabitants of Zambia. They were culturally divided into two groups; the Bushmen and the Khoikhoi, formerly referred to as Hottentots. Zambia became a British protectorate in 1911, then known as Northern Rhodesia. In 1964, Zambia was granted independence from Great Britain.

Dung beetle - There are over 35,000 species of dung beetles belonging to the super family Scarabaeoidea. Dung beetles are divided into three groups: dwellers, rollers, and tunnelers. The dwellers live within the dung heaps they find. The rollers shape dung into balls and roll them to secure sites to use as a food source or brooding chamber. The tunnelers will bury dung where they find it, using it as a food source and brooding chamber. Dung beetles perform an important agricultural role by recycling animal waste.
